Sorghum Partners®, a Chromatin, Inc. brand, recently announced a Sugarcane Aphid Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program that combines the use of multiple pest control tactics to help mitigate the effects of the sugarcane aphid pest on sorghum in US.

The Sugarcane aphid has rapidly become an important pest of sorghum in the U.S. but can be successfully managed despite its known aggressiveness.

“Our Integrated Pest Management program establishes the best practices to maximize your operation’s economic return potential,” said Scott Staggenborg, Director of Product Portfolio & Technology Advancement at Chromatin, Inc., the parent company of the Sorghum Partners® brand. “We want our growers to know that the sugarcane aphid can be successfully managed using our comprehensive program.”
